Weddell Island
Weddell Island, situated to the west of West Falkland is the largest and possibly the wildest of the offshore islands just over an hour’s direct flight from Stanley. It is a superb island for hiking, both up and around Mount Weddell with miles of spectacular coastline to explore.
Tours to Loop Head nature reserve and other locations around the island can be included in your itinerary if you stay two nights.
